Be The 'I' In Kind
Random Acts Of Kindness
For the month of February, Impact teamed up with the Town of Wainwright to Be the ‘I’ in Kind! We asked the people of our community to stop by the Town Office and have their photo taken in front of a mural, holding a sign that said a kind thing they have done for someone else in the last month! We thought stopping by ourselves on Pink Shirt Day (a day created to raise awareness to bullying) was a perfect fit!
